All components fermented separately and only blended before bottling. Shiraz and the Mourvedre were fermented in 5000L open top tanks with regular punchdowns throughout the fermentation process to maximise colour and flavour extraction from the skins. The Viognier was pressed and sent to 225l barrels for natural fermentation. A portion of the Viognier skins were added to the Shiraz tank to further extract the floral, spiciness from the Viognier.

The Shiraz and Mourvedre spent 12 months in 225l French oak barrels, 3rd & 4th fill as not to overpower the delicate, elegant flavours in this blend. The Viognier fermented and matured in 225l French oak 2nd fill barrels for 6 months.

Grapes are all picked by hand and sorted mechanically using a vibration sorting table. The batch then goes through 2 days of cold maceration in a tank at between 5-10C in order to maximise flavour and colour extraction before fermentation. Fermentation is initiated by commercial yeast inoculation and is temperature controlled to 24C throughout the process. Post-fermentation, the wine is further matured on the skins for 2 weeks before a light pressing to separate the wine from the skins.

Post fermentation, the wine is racked to French oak barrels, 225L 3rd, 4th, and 5th fill barrels. The use of oak is restrained as the focus of this Cabernet Sauvignon is to retain its clarity of fruit and dark, rich flavour profile. The duration of barrel maturation is 16 months.

Cape Cuvée is a Cape-style blend of 38% Pinotage, 31% Syrah and 31% Cabernet Sauvignon. The fruit was hand-harvested and chilled to 2–4°C before being destemmed and crushed into open-top fermenters. After a two-day cold soakto maximise colour and flavour extraction, fermentation was carried out under controlled temperatures with manual punch-downs four times daily. The wine remained on the skins for a further three weeks after fermentation to build depth and complexity, before being pressed and transferred to barrel for malolactic fermentation. The final blend was assembled to capture both richness and balance in a distinctly South African style.
